Jeff Kaiser

Teaching Professional

Born and raised in Boise Idaho, Jeff took a bit of an unconventional path to golf Instruction. In his mid- twenties, Jeff was inspired by the 2001 US Open championship. After watching Retief Goosen win the championship, Jeff literally went and purchased a set of clubs the next day, and the rest was history.

Jeff graduated with honors from PGCC, a golf school in Southern California, he was immediately hired by Haggin Oaks in Sacramento. After multiple years as a club fitter and instructor, Jeff was given an opportunity to run his own team at a sister course managed by the same company, Bing Maloney. Here, Jeff spent most of his time teaching on the back of a driving range, along with now teaching other new instructors how to explain what can be a complicated game.

Eventually, Jeff was looking for the quiet life and has spent the last 3 years in Ukiah as our lead instructor. Jeff’s teaching philosophy has developed over many years working with beginners and intermediate players. His approach is based on simplicity, which yields quick results while giving his students a true understanding of how the swing should feel. Since Jeff learned the game as an adult, he can really relate to those just starting, and those who have always struggled with game.
